08:03:07 <poetaster> ah, now
08:03:25 * nephros is actually joining from work ( ;) ), so answers *may* be delayed.
08:03:43 <poetaster> good morning.
08:04:45 <ExTechOp> (Good morning, and in case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night)
08:04:45 <flypig> Morning poetaster!
08:05:05 <rainemak> #topic XDG-Desktop-Portal specification: interesting for Sailfish OS?  (10mins -- asked by nephros)
08:05:13 <poetaster> Morning flypig!
08:05:17 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> This is rather long question. Thus, let’s use original message from the forum
08:05:17 <rainemak> #info <nephros> Here's the question:
08:05:17 <rainemak> #link https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/community-meeting-on-irc-11th-january-2024/17628/2
08:05:59 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> Certainly, having common APIs is a good idea. More planning is
08:05:59 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> needed and putting down mentioned high-level guidance. We could
08:05:59 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> plan this on a separate forum post. Worth to analyse how much XDG
08:05:59 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> Desktop Portals could eventually help on mobile.
08:06:52 <rainemak> Or forum wiki page maybe.
08:07:59 <rainemak> Big part of this would be in implementing the backend... something like xdg-desktop-portal-sailfishos
08:08:01 <rainemak> Big part of this would be in implementing the backend... something like xdg-desktop-portal-sailfish
08:08:15 <flypig> So, XDG-Desktop-Portal would help with Sandboxing; porting; and just generally staying consistent with other distros. Does that sound about right?
08:08:28 <flypig> When I say "porting" I mean porting apps.
08:08:37 <nephros> It could yes. It's its intention.
08:08:38 <rainemak> Yeap, that's about right.
08:09:13 <nephros> But its made by the Flatpack guys, so some implementations may bve specific to them. Still, having an API spec is good IMO.
08:09:42 <rainemak> This would grow about from the Flatpak similarly as xdg-dbus-proxy did
08:09:42 <nephros> Example: Portals specifies a DBus call for taking screenshots.
08:09:51 <rainemak> s/would/could/
08:10:11 <poetaster> the question of getting 'secure' dbus communication is also adressed by xdg-dbus-proxy?
08:10:33 <flypig> If there are problems with the spec for non-Flatpack scenarios, that might be something they'd want to knwo about.
08:10:34 <nephros> I think first step could be identifying where there is overlap of existing functionality and specification.
08:11:07 <nephros> (and identifying which parts of the spec are not interesting to SFOS).
08:11:40 <rainemak> #info API reference is extensive
08:11:41 <rainemak> #link https://flatpak.github.io/xdg-desktop-portal/docs/api-reference.html
08:12:06 <flypig> nephros: a sort of mapping between existing dbus interfaces and xdg-desktop-portal interfaces.
08:12:13 <rainemak> #info <flypig> XDG-Desktop-Portal would help with Sandboxing; porting; and just generally staying consistent with other distros. Does that sound about right?
08:12:16 <nephros> BTW, newer versions of Mozilla use Portals plus PipeWire for video chatting
08:12:43 <rainemak> #info <nephros> I think first step could be identifying where there is overlap of existing functionality and specification.
08:13:02 <rainemak> #info <nephros> (and identifying which parts of the spec are not interesting to SFOS).
08:13:33 <poetaster> the use case from rinigus puremaps talking via dbus to osm server, for instance?
08:13:55 <rainemak> poetaster, I don't see how this would help with that
08:14:07 <nephros> poetaster: I don't think there is a Portal spec for that.
08:14:24 <poetaster> he's just using dbus
08:14:40 <rainemak> do we have this one covered?
08:14:45 <poetaster> nephros, he mentions it on the page you linked
08:14:45 <flypig> Presumably there could be a community-driven effort to implement something like the screenshot interface, to see how it might work?
08:15:12 <poetaster> rainemak, it's currently not sailjail compatible and so puremaps from harbour is gutted.
08:15:22 <rainemak> #info Presumably there could be a community-driven effort to implement something like the screenshot interface, to see how it might work?
08:15:35 <poetaster> rainemak, that's a good ida.
08:15:49 <nephros> So a SFOS-portal-dbus-proxy?
08:15:49 <rainemak> Let's move on to next topic.
08:15:56 <flypig> Cool find nephros.
08:16:01 <nephros> :)
08:16:07 <rainemak> #topic Unlock via dbus (10mins -- asked by piggz)
08:16:07 <poetaster> +1
08:16:21 <rainemak> #info <piggz> I made a fun little hack which allows a user to auto-unlock the
08:16:21 <rainemak> #info <piggz> phone if some configured BT device is connected (GitHub - piggz/
08:16:21 <rainemak> #info <piggz> harbour-smartunlock 3). Unfortunately it required a nasty hack in
08:16:21 <rainemak> #info <piggz> nemo-qml-plugin-devicelock to allow unlocking via dbus (GitHub -
08:16:21 <rainemak> #info <piggz> piggz/nemo-qml-plugin-devicelock at dbus-unlock), I can envisage a
08:16:23 <rainemak> #info <piggz> setup where the user enters the unlock code into some settings, and
08:16:24 <rainemak> #info <piggz> a dbus method that accepted the code could do the unlocking, which
08:16:26 <rainemak> #info <piggz> would be a bit better. This currently works great on the
08:16:28 <rainemak> #info <piggz> PInephones, but not on my phone which uses sailfish-devicelock-fpd.
08:16:30 <rainemak> #info <piggz> That closed part does link to /usr/lib64/libnemodevicelock.so.0 and
08:16:30 <piggz> oh, im here, but have to do school run in a few minutes :)
08:16:32 <rainemak> #info <piggz> exposes the same dbus method, but replies with an Auth error before
08:16:34 <rainemak> #info <piggz> hitting the modified code in MceDeviceLockAdaptor::setState() I
08:16:36 <rainemak> #info <piggz> think this is because it statically links the library, so my
08:16:40 <rainemak> #info <piggz> override in the dynamic lib doesnt work. Would you be interested in
08:16:42 <rainemak> #info <piggz> adding some real way to auto-unlock a device? What are your
08:16:44 <rainemak> #info <piggz> thoughts on this? My use case is to not need to unlock the phone if
08:16:46 <rainemak> #info <piggz> it know im “close by” … eg, if connected to my watch or my car"
08:16:48 <rainemak> #link https://github.com/piggz/harbour-smartunlock
08:16:50 <rainemak> #link https://github.com/piggz/nemo-qml-plugin-devicelock/tree/dbus-unlock
08:16:52 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> Yes, there some interest to support community with something like
08:16:54 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> this. Your patch touches the same function we have modified in some
08:16:56 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> in-house hacks / demos – so it is one control point that could be
08:16:58 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> used. But it is also very much against the rule of thumb: anyone
08:17:00 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> can lock device, only device lock daemon can unlock it based on
08:17:02 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> something user does. Pure sw unlock easily becomes a backdoor. At
08:17:04 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> minimum such possibility should be limited to privileged processes
08:17:06 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> (our patch allows only root to unlock). Preferably user should
08:17:10 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> still be in control over something like this – say setting allowing
08:17:12 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> unlock over D-Bus , bit similarly to relaxing rules about package
08:17:14 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> installation works. Or limiting such functionality to named client
08:17:16 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> binaries. The smaller the hole the better but nevertheless there
08:17:18 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> will be a hole. Does the possibility for increased convenience for
08:17:20 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> some justify decrease in security for all?
08:17:22 <rainemak> #info <Jolla>
08:17:24 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> Another way might be to implement this as authentication method
08:17:26 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> that device lock daemon would then use for unlocking (when user
08:17:28 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> wakes up the device). But given that daemon is closed source
08:17:30 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> monolith, it would need to be implemented in-house for foreseeable
08:17:32 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> future. And we’d need ability to grade authentication methods
08:17:34 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> somehow to differentiate between “can be used for unlocking device”
08:17:36 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> and “can be used to identify user” and so on.
08:18:36 <rainemak> any comments?
08:18:47 <piggz> just reading....
08:19:22 <piggz> smart-unlock is a feature on android ... perhaps you could consider adding such a thing?
08:19:38 <piggz> im quite happy to not have to make my own hack
08:19:55 <piggz> just for the "connected device" use-case
08:20:56 <rainemak> let's see how this develops
08:21:05 <ExTechOp> It would be nice if the user could select how "hard" security they want/need on their devices, instead of having it hardwired by the operating system.
08:21:31 <flypig> So the obvious downside as mentioned is potential privacy violations; either allowing criminals or the state-level to get access?
08:21:45 <flypig> ExTechOp, your suggestion would mitigate that.
08:21:58 <piggz> flypig: but if the uses opts to not-lock if their watch is in vicinityl then thats fine
08:22:19 <rainemak> #info <ExTechOp> It would be nice if the user could select how "hard" security they want/need on their devices, instead of having it hardwired by the operating system.
08:22:45 <flypig> piggz, yes, understood. I guess I'd just personally not want it to weaken security protections when it's not used.
08:22:57 <piggz> sure
08:23:05 <poetaster> people pay with cards at stores with nothing more than a swipe these days. not secure at all.
08:24:01 <piggz> i wouldnt want to weaken security for all, but just add some convenience for some with little downside
08:24:01 <rainemak> I don't think that's a same analogy
08:24:31 <poetaster> I'm suggesting that pairing nfc, bluetooth are MORE secure.
08:24:33 <poetaster> that's all.
08:24:37 <nephros> which kind of device are you using at the moment to unlock?
08:25:00 <rainemak> time flies...
08:25:14 <piggz> nephros: my use case is basically ... if my watch is connected, which is on my person, then allow unlock automatically
08:25:32 <rainemak> let's continue this one the general discussion if we have time left. ok
08:25:34 <poetaster> piggz, ble?
08:25:48 <piggz> happy enough for this to be considered, have to go to school now :) thx rainemak
08:25:48 <nephros> Maybe it can be constrained to BT MAC + must be a HID device + must have a button + button press unlocks?
08:25:48 <rainemak> ... on the general
08:25:58 <rainemak> thanks piggz
08:26:04 <rainemak> #topic Inclusion of FolderListModel in harbour (5mins -- asked by poetaster)
08:26:09 <rainemak> #info <poetaster> I recently, somewhat belatedly, noticed that I had disqualified
08:26:09 <rainemak> #info <poetaster> a number of packages I already have in harbour by adding
08:26:09 <rainemak> #info <poetaster> FolderListModel. (the labs one). Is it possible to allow this?
08:26:09 <rainemak> #info <poetaster> Or am I missing an equally convenient mechanism. I have my
08:26:09 <rainemak> #info <poetaster> ‘own’ python based version but that’s a hack.
08:26:17 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> There isn’t really any good reason for not allowing
08:26:17 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> Qt.labs.folderlistmodel in Harbour. In fact, we were already
08:26:17 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> planning to allow it in 4.5.0 release, but unfortunately the change
08:26:17 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> just missed the window. It will be allowed when the next Sailfish
08:26:18 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> OS release comes out.
08:26:38 <poetaster> Oh, cool! Yeah!
08:26:45 <flypig> Great news :)
08:26:51 <rainemak> this is should be clear and straightforward :-)
08:27:00 <rainemak> s/is//
08:27:19 <poetaster> short topic. not like me.
08:27:31 <nephros> Is there a significant difference between the labs one, and the one from Silica (or is it Nemo)?
08:27:32 <rainemak> let's move on
08:27:43 <rainemak> #topic AAS System Webview (5mins -- asked by Matias)
08:27:55 <rainemak> #info <Matias> SFOS AAS comes with Android System Webview version 83 which is 3.5
08:27:55 <rainemak> #info <Matias> years old by now. This causes certain banking apps and potentially
08:27:55 <rainemak> #info <Matias> other Android applications that rely on a more recent version of
08:27:55 <rainemak> #info <Matias> webview to stop working and it is also a bit of a security risk.
08:27:55 <rainemak> #info <Matias> Installing and activating a different webview implementation
08:27:55 <rainemak> #info <Matias> requires superuser rights (infeasible) or signature spoofing
08:27:57 <rainemak> #info <Matias> (which nobody seems to have tried in the context of webview yet).
08:27:59 <rainemak> #info <Matias> With the reorganization over I was hoping someone could shed some
08:28:01 <rainemak> #info <Matias> light on this.
08:28:03 <rainemak> #info <Matias>
08:28:05 <rainemak> #info <Matias> So, is there an update for AAS/Android System Webview somewhere
08:28:09 <rainemak> #info <Matias> down the pipeline?

08:28:44 <rainemak> sorry, nephros I just changed the topic... please raise your question again on the general discussion.
08:30:08 <Matias> I see. Would it be possible to whitelist other webviews in the system image to allow the user to choose other ones if they so desire? Just an idea.

08:34:39 <rainemak> #topic Jolla community dinner @ FOSDEM '24 (10mins -- asked by Louis)
08:34:44 <rainemak> #info <Louis> There has been a Jolla community dinner after FOSDEM on Saturday in
08:34:45 <rainemak> #info <Louis> the previous years at non-COVID times. I personally miss the
08:34:45 <rainemak> #info <Louis> Moroccan restaurant La Kasbah (the host at 2019 and 2020) as I
08:34:45 <rainemak> #info <Louis> found it quite suited? Anyone from Jolla up for the planning or
08:34:45 <rainemak> #info <Louis> should it be done by time community. Also if anyone have better
08:34:45 <rainemak> #info <Louis> suggestions I’m open for it.
08:35:12 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> We’re thinking that this would be more like Community event this
08:35:13 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> time. That said, it’s under planning. We’re still checking suitable
08:35:13 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> place, but it should be such that it encourages to discuss and serves
08:35:13 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> food. Central location it’ll be and likely scheduled to Saturday
08:35:13 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> 7:00 PM giving everybody enough time to move from FOSDEM venue.
08:35:13 <rainemak> #info <Jolla>
08:35:15 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> There’s also a forum topic about the dinner but no post yet
08:35:17 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> regarding this Community event.

08:35:50 <flypig> I'm already looking forward to it!
08:36:19 <LouisDK> flypig, good to hear. Just want to know if anyone from Jolla wants to plan it.
08:36:40 <LouisDK> I could also step in if needed
08:36:57 <rainemak> LouisDK, we're planning it already
08:37:26 <LouisDK> rainemak: Nice. Do you have a resturant in mind?
08:38:17 <rainemak> LouisDK, not yet selected.
08:38:56 <rainemak> We'll post to the forum when there's info to share
08:39:01 <flypig> If I recall correctly, last year was Café Georgette, before that it was La Kasbah like you said LouisDK.
08:39:22 <flypig> Quite different experiences :)
08:39:24 <LouisDK> flypig: Yes. It's sww what rainemak comes up with.
08:40:12 <flypig> Yes, indeed :)
08:40:49 <rainemak> Do you want to continue still or is it ok to move forward?
08:40:55 <flypig> I shall hold the question until general, but I'm interested to know if anyone else here will be at FOSDEM.
08:41:13 <LouisDK> rainemak: Just continue.
08:41:22 <rainemak> Trying save some time for general discussion
08:41:27 <rainemak> #topic Jollas future plans regarding Alien Dalvik  (10mins -- asked by Louis)
08:41:30 <rainemak> #info <Louis> What is the situation regarding Jolla and Alien Dalvik. Does Jolla
08:41:30 <rainemak> #info <Louis> have “enough rights” to expand the development and offering of
08:41:31 <rainemak> #info <Louis> Alien Dalvik to eg. community ports? (Eg. sell it under an “as-is”
08:41:31 <rainemak> #info <Louis> agreement without any official support from Jolla)
08:41:42 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> Let’s correct the name first, it’s not Alien Dalvik but Android
08:41:42 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> AppSupport. Not quite sure what you trying to ask with “enough
08:41:42 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> rights” but yes, we have all rights to the AppSupport. This has
08:41:42 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> been discussed on several occasions in the past, see links below.
08:41:42 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> Proposed as-is is likely not a good idea with current Sailfish X
08:41:43 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> pricing model.
08:41:45 <rainemak> #info <Jolla>
08:41:47 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> It's worth noting that Android AppSupport for community ports is
08:41:49 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> more than just providing the relevant packages. No need to repeat
08:41:51 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> answers again, please check “Ability to buy/enable Android
08:41:53 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> AppSupport for community ports” topic from 2023-02-16 log and

08:45:18 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> Any open PRs to discuss?
08:45:45 <rainemak> I had none prepared for this...
08:46:42 <flypig> Without Damien's update I'm lost :(
08:46:50 <rainemak> Let's skip open PRs for today... .-)
08:46:57 <rainemak> flypig, yeap
08:47:02 <rainemak> #info <topic> Bug reports by the community bug coordination team (5 min -- asked by Jolla)
08:47:07 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> The Community Bug Coordination Team have done a superb job once again this fortnight.

08:47:07 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> 6 high quality bug reports now recorded internally and tagged as "tracked".

08:47:09 <rainemak> #info <Jolla> 3 marked as duplicates and closed.
08:47:36 <rainemak> Let's move on to the general discussion.
08:47:36 <rainemak> #topic General discussion (8 min)
08:48:00 <flypig> Kudos to the bug team again!
08:48:07 <rainemak> flypig, you had some general topics...
08:48:21 <rainemak> flypig, Yeap! Once again
08:48:24 <flypig> Oh, well, I'm curious to know who else here will be at FOSDEM.
08:48:33 <rainemak> I'll be
08:48:41 <LouisDK> I will for sure.
08:48:52 <ExTechOp> The last time, I asked about SFOS future plans, has there been progress that could be made public?
08:49:50 <Matias> I'd love to visit FOSDEM sometime, but probably not this year :(
08:49:51 <rainemak> ExTechOp, not really, you can trust that we share those when ready
08:50:21 <poetaster> I can't make FOSDEM either. Family, winter school break collide.
08:50:59 <flypig> I'm looking forward to seeing you there LouisDK, rainemak :) Sorry to hear that though poetaster (I think you mentioned it previously, but it's still a shame).
08:52:07 <poetaster> flypig, ah, just checked. I'm wrong. 3-4 fossdem, 5-9 school free. hmmm. depends on what we plan for that week.
08:52:35 <flypig> Well, if things change and you can make it, it will be wonderful to meet up :D
08:52:51 <poetaster> yes, I'd really like that! I never get out :)
08:52:52 <rainemak> Matias, got some input regarding the AAS WebView
08:53:08 <flypig> poetaster: :D

08:54:21 <rainemak> #info "Why are there security restrictions on which apps can be used as a WebView implementation?" ^
08:55:14 <rainemak> let's schedule next meeting next...
08:55:18 <rainemak> #topic Next meeting time and date (5 mins)
08:55:21 <flypig> So on a standard Android device, does that mean it's not possible to upgrade the Webview?
08:55:24 <flypig> nephros, earlier you asked: "Is there a significant difference between the labs one, and the one from Silica (or is it Nemo)?" What is the labs one?
08:55:45 <flypig> Sorry, I spilled over; you can ignore me.
08:56:07 <rainemak> https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qt-labs-folderlistmodel-folderlistmodel.html
08:56:13 <Matias> It's possible to update the default Google system webview on regular Android devices, where it is whitelisted in the system image and available in the play store, I think.
08:56:31 <flypig> Thank you rainemak!
08:56:41 <rainemak> Matias, yeap it could be possible via Play Store
08:56:48 <flypig> Got it, thank you Matias!
08:56:59 <rainemak> Proposing Thursday 1st February at 08:00am UTC due to vacations so right before FOSDEM.
08:57:06 <Matias> Thank you too for the extra info rainemak!
08:57:09 <nephros> There is Nemo.FileManager::FileModel
08:57:13 <ViGe> flypig: Yeah, the one which rainemak linked is the labs one. There isn't any in Silica and we don't use the one from Nemo.
08:57:32 <nephros> ok understood.
08:57:41 <ExTechOp> 2024-02-01 works4me
08:57:46 <flypig> +1
08:58:17 <flypig> Thanks ViGe.
08:58:44 <rainemak> nephros, it's a matter of choice and both could be available for Harbour use
08:58:53 <poetaster> flypig, my better half says I should just go to fossdem :)
08:59:18 <flypig> Yay! You have a very wise better half :)
08:59:26 <rainemak> :)
08:59:45 <rainemak> #info Next meeting will be held on Thursday 1st February 2023 at 08:00am UTC: 2024-02-01T0800Z
09:00:03 <rainemak> Thank you everyone for the meeting!
09:00:11 <poetaster> ok, so I wasn't aware of the Nemo FolderListModel ... research.
09:00:14 <poetaster> thanks all!
09:00:17 <flypig> Thank you rainemak, all!
09:00:19 <nephros> thanks! See ya around!
09:00:25 <Matias> Thank you all!
09:00:35 <poetaster> ahoi!
09:00:43 <Matias> First time, I was quite nervous :)
09:00:47 <rainemak> I think now we peeked number of topics... one less would be better, let's improve a bit.
09:01:06 <flypig> Nice work Matias, did great ;)
09:01:10 <ExTechOp> Thank you, everybody!
09:01:20 <rainemak> Matias, don't be you did well! Welcome
